Staying cool in Hennepin County.
Media advisory-
Hennepin County online map lists cooling places for tropical summer days.
Tropical summer temperatures are forecast to raise the Twin Cities heat index to the mid-90s Monday. Hennepin County Public Health has created an mobile-friendly online mapping application to help residents who don't have air conditioning at home to find public places to escape the summer heat.

In a normal year, about 175 Americans die of complications from overheating. Young children, senior citizens and people who are sick or overweight are most vulnerable.

Find a way to keep cool
From a tablet or mobile phone, residents and nonresidents can click on the Public Health Emergencies webpage to find a Hennepin County map, then click on the cooling option mobile application. They can make the map close and personal by entering a home zip code or current street address. The map will zero in on the selected neighborhood; users then can click on individual cooling locations for an address, days and hours of operation, contact information and a website link, when possible. Users of desktop and laptop computers still can access the same information in larger format online.

Dig into mapping data
The application is only one part of a larger initiative to make public information more usable for Hennepin County residents. Other projects include park maps, public health information, construction, property values and taxation. Applications are scattered throughout the county website, but several can be found at www.hennepin.us/gis.
